Tony Brown has knee scoped

Titans defensive tackle Tony Brown recently had arthroscopic knee surgery to repair an injury that hampered him throughout the 2010 season.

Dr. James Andrews of Birmingham performed the procedure.

Brown wasn’t the same in 2010 thanks to the injury. He finished the season on injured reserve and played in just 11 games. He had 35 tackles and 3.5 sacks after signing a 3-year, $17 million extension last offseason. Brown also had a knee procedure last offseason.

“Our expectations are he’ll be able to return to form,’’ agent Marty Magid said. “He played through a lot of pain this past year and it was disappointing. But he is rehabbing and looking forward to getting back to being the old Tony.’’
